Did you try Aurora? (The biggest selection in the area, I went around and eventually got mine there after haggling, I was able to get 2200 off the sticker price)

Its an income thing. Before I started my second job they didn't think I made enough money to pay for the car despite working full-time. I now work 70-hour weeks and should be able to reapply for the car and get it soon.

I had to get a cosigner when I got mine but I didn't have my big boy engineering job yet since I was still in school. Did you try putting a down payment?

Poor past decisions (17 cars in 12 years) caught up with me.

Having LED door sills installed They said it would take 2 hours but then they tell me they gotta keep it overnight because its more difficult than they thought, admitting theyve never done it before

But on the plus side I got a nice CRV as a loaner thats pretty decked out with features similar to my sport touring hatchback

Hopefully they are more careful with your car then they were mine. They nicked the air bag harness and had to replace the entire thing. I barely had 800 miles on the car :-/

Hopefully you won’t have to wait too long until the stars change and the signs are favorable. It’s tougher though with new car loans being 5, 6, 7 or more years... But who knows what ANY of us will be like in that time frame, fate is fickle. Hang in there.

Well, with the news that I may have a cosigner with outstanding credit sooner rather than later, I may end up in an Si in mid-late july.

I still need to see the Yellow in person.

Yeah, I've seen that black Type R around Elgin too. You from the Elgin area?
